Good LED headlights aren’t blinding. It’s often aftermarket nonsense that causes problems. As someone else mentioned, the culprits aren’t often LEDs; there are some crazy bulbs out there, and the people using them just don’t care if they’re blinding other drivers. It’s ridiculous.
- boring_twenties 6y agoThere doesn't appear to be any dearth of traffic enforcement in general in the United States. They carry special devices with them just to measure your window tint, FFS. Is there some reason they can't be incentivized to enforce actual safety laws like this one, too (or instead)?
- ficklepickle 6y agoOh, I know this one. Racism! Tint rules give plausible deniability for pulling someone over for driving while black. It's not about safety at all.
- boring_twenties 6y agoYou know, I think you might be onto something.
- kitteh 6y agoKnow one major US city where the state police ran a campaign on the various interstates entering that city (and the surrounding unincorporated roads) where they were writing tickets for lights that violated state law. Went on for a few months and there was backlash (from suburban teens families) to the right folks in the state that got them to stop the campaign.
